Biography
Shan Yu was a Hunnic warlord from Ulaanbaatar. Like his ancestors the Xianbei, he attempted to seize power from the Chinese, invading the Northern Wei empire with a large Hunnic army. He was ruthless and had a falcon as a companion, a falconer in his free time. His army wiped out General Li's army in the northern mountains of China and marched on the imperial city of Luoyang, intent on capturing the emperor.

He was eventually decieved by the female warrior Fa Mulan, who buried many of his troops in an avalance by shooting a rocket. When he reached Luoyang, he faced a strong defense, and was killed. Attila the Hun, who was expanding the Huns in the west, incorporated his lands.
